PUBLICATION
The symposium proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Selected papers will
be invited to special issues of Algorithmica, Theoretical Computer
Science, and International Journal of Computational Geometry and
Applications.

PAPER SUBMISSION
The submission should contain a scholarly exposition of ideas,
techniques, and results, including motivation and a clear comparison
with related work. The main text of the submission, including title,
abstract, and references, should not exceed 10 pages in LNCS style. An
optional appendix should be used to provide proof details that do not
fit in the main text. Submitted papers must describe work not
previously published. They must not be submitted simultaneously to
another conference with refereed proceedings or to a journal. Drafts
which contain essentially the same results as papers under review in
other conferences or journals at the moment of submission cannot be
submitted to ISAAC 2012. Only electronic submission will be allowed
via the easychair submission server:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=isaac2012.

AWARDS
A Best Paper and a Best Student Paper will be awarded. A paper is
eligible for the Best Student Paper Award if all authors are full-time
students at the time of submission. To indicate that a submission is
eligible, please add the phrase "Eligible for the Best Student Paper
Award" as the last sentence in the "Abstract" field in the Web form of
the submission server as well as in the paper.
